Latest Mobile App Performance Trends Revealed

According to Gartner's recent report, Gartner Market Trends: Mobile App Stores Worldwide 2012 Forecast (August 17, 2012), smart device popularity drives opportunity for mobile app stores which by 2016 will reach 310 billion downloads and $74 billion in revenue, providing further evidence that the demand for mobile apps and in-app purchases will only continue to increase. As such, it is more critical than ever to ensure mobile apps are operating effectively and that developers have greater visibility into the many variables that cause crashes, and therefore affect user retention.
